Nearly all my concerns about this game are rooted in the fact that Turn 10 has "fixed" too many things that weren't quite broken in FM6. That's not to say it didn't improve in some ways, but the questionable changes outshine the good for me. And again, it is not a threat that I might not want to buy another game by Turn 10. It's nothing more than a real possibility.
I'm not disagreeing with you for the most part, there are a lot of little issues that bother me too. In fact, I haven't really even opened up the game in weeks, outside of just checking something out recently. However, your own post that started this is like a backhand to all the serious issues you put forth. It very much flowed in the same vein as a threat - "Do this or I wont buy the next game!"
It underlines how much it bothers me that I may have missed the chance to collect cars that are part of the reason why I decided to buy FM7, such as the rare in video games Ferrari 612. I know we all more or less agree that Turn 10 hasn't been overly smart in making exclusive unicorns out of cars printed onto the game disc, so I don't know why my post on this matter was taken as an opportunity to question the weight of my words. Counterproductive to say the least.
Counterproductive was that post. Not so much your others, for the most part.
Unicorns I've loathed since its introduction, but at least they were special before and not tallied towards the actual car list. The way they're doing it now is just a bit crappy.
There are definitely minor issues in FM7, and thereby issues so insignificant that I don't feel the need to talk about it. I mention the things that genuinely bother me, which may not always be things that bother everyone else all that much, so maybe this is why you have that impression.
Yet, you do talk about some of those insignificant issues. Very much like the helicopters that
@Northstar mentioned. I have the impression because no matter how big or small the issue is, you voice them as if they're equally bad as each other. Sometimes it looks like complaining just for the sake of it, other times not so much.
So we essentially agree but still pause to pick out flaws.
I never disagreed. Just pointing out how you appear to go a bit extra sometimes. However, I'm not going around expecting them to do something just because I said, and turning around saying I wont buy the next game. I am however going to voice my opinion on things I'm not fond out, and make sure to be weary of the next game. I'm not going to just stop playing/buying future iterations just because of an issue that happened on the previous game, with a predetermined mindset before even finding anything out about the next title. I'll wait for the next title before making that decision.
The ever important distinction to keep in mind here is that I'm a paying customer sharing my feedback. I have a right to voice my complaints no matter how trivial you think it is. If you respectfully disagree with my opinion then that's fine, but the response I got initially was more like "let's stir a little drama now".
Theres no distinction that anyone has to keep in mind here. You're on a public forum, so expect people to respond to your opinion in kind. To act as if someone is supressing your opinion is a bit odd, we're just questioning the seriousness of it. How you can come in here to claim that you have a right to voice it, and but get bothered by others posting theirs in turn is a bit hypocritical. I'm not telling you to stop, I'm not hushing you, I'm pointing out that its a bit much to throw around something like that. The response you got came across because of the post you put forth - had it not flowed along the lines of a threat/tantrum, it probably would have warranted a different response.
Was I stirring drama to begin with? Maybe if you want to insist that I made a "threat" in saying that I might not want to buy their next game unless they unlock the unicorns we all paid for a chance to miss.
If you say it wasn't a threat, than that's fine. However, I still stand by it coming across exactly like that. I get the problems with the Specialty dealer, I have acknowledged such for the umpteenth time. It's one of the reasons that I'm having issues with right now as well.
What I did say was - add these cars to the Specialty Dealer to preserve my interest in your games. Win-win, but here we are with Turn 10 still behaving as if they have something to lose by giving us access to all non-DLC cars in the game. It's so very weird.
Oh, so much like the kids on youtube who scream at them to add so and so into the game or else they're selling it, or never purchasing one again? That's the problem that is put forth, it very much so resembled those posts. The issue being is that we know you can very well articulate a post much better than what we come across on the cesspit of the internet.
